About Ralph Trionfo
Real Estate | Hospitality | Ecommerce | Community | Music
I’m Ralph Trionfo—a born-and-raised New Yorker, third-generation real estate operator, passionate entrepreneur, and lifelong community connector. Everything I do is driven by vision, relationships, creativity, and an obsession with building projects that bring value to people’s everyday lives.
Real Estate: A Family Legacy With Modern Vision
Real estate isn’t just my profession—it’s in my DNA. As a third-generation owner, operator, and licensed New York State Real Estate Broker, I’ve spent my life learning the business from the ground up.
My experience spans the full spectrum:
• Development & construction
• Asset management
• Leasing & brokerage
• Hospitality-driven retail and food service operations
• Navigating complex, multi-million-dollar transactions (over $200M to date)
I’ve learned that real estate is more than properties—it’s people, neighborhoods, and long-term impact.
Hospitality & Wine/Spirits: the brand builder
With over 15 years of experience in New York City’s competitive wine and liquor market, I work alongside industry leader Empire Merchants to develop and support top-tier beverage brands. For me, every bottle tells a story—about culture, community, and connection—and presents an opportunity to craft unforgettable experiences.
From curating profitable beverage programs for restaurants, bars, and hospitality venues across the city to building brand awareness, my approach combines strategy, creativity, and a passion for hospitality. I enjoy working with everyone from large corporate franchises to small local businesses, designing programs that not only drive revenue but also create experiences guests remember—and return to.
E-commerce Ventures: Building Digital Marketplaces That Inspire
I’m also a hands-on ecommerce builder who loves creating platforms that highlight creativity, culture, and community.
A curated local online marketplace spotlighting fashion, art, home goods, gifts, and indie creators. hi5.nyc celebrates the energy of New York—bold, eclectic, and always evolving.
An online shop originally inspired by global travel and soccer culture, featuring apparel, seasonal drops, and lifestyle pieces that resonate with fans, creators, and collectors. Built from scratch, it allowed me to merge design, branding, and community engagement into one digital space.
Both platforms reflect my passion for entrepreneurship, design, and creating opportunities for small brands to shine.
A New Creative Chapter: Ralphie Remix
My newest venture taps into a lifelong passion—music.
Music: Under my artist name (( Ralphie Remix )), I’ve stepped into the world of music production as a debut producer, finally bringing my creative voice to life through beats, rhythm, and storytelling.
Growing up in a home filled with salsa, R&B, soul, and Caribbean influences—and later spending my teenage years at legendary clubs like Studio 54, The Funhouse, and Paradise Garage—music has always been my heartbeat.
Today, I’m producing original tracks that blend:
• Deep house
• Afro beats
• Chicago house
• Tropical + Latin rhythms
• A lifetime of musical influence and culture
My music is now streaming across all major platforms, marking the start of an exciting new chapter where creativity, technology, and passion collide.

Community First: Always
No matter how many ventures I build, community is at the center of everything. I believe deeply in giving back—whether it’s local initiatives, grassroots collaborations, or helping small businesses grow. Real impact is measured in relationships, not transactions.
Driven, Hands-On, and All Heart
I thrive in fast-paced, multi-layered environments—real estate, ecommerce, hospitality, community work, and now music. Every project I take on gets my full commitment, strategic focus, and genuine passion.
I build with intention.
I lead with purpose.
I create with heart.
